DC ... you probably mentioned this and if so, I missed it: What about a dump station right next to your RV to empty it's tanks?
We have that here in our backyard and it sure is nice to be able to dump the tanks before and after trips right here at home.
P.S. I've even located some good mobile mechanics that will come right to my backyard and repair/maintain both the Ford chassis and Winnebago coach.
Phil,
No need... just one half a mile from my driveway is the Giant {brand} gas station out on highway 260. They sell a lot of gas to the RV crowd that passes by both going and coming up and down 260 to access the Mogollon Rim. Their business is greatly enhanced by the free dump stations {2} that they have. I don't even need to get on 260 as the back exit from their parking lot empties out onto Granite Dells Rd which is how I get to my place.
I have been using their dump station for years, usually when returning from our many camping trips up to the Rim and this time of year the only two dump stations up on the Rim are closed until May. On Sunday afternoons the wait can be an hour or more but I just roll up there mid morning, mid week and have it all to myself. Like the man said... Location, location, location!
